Here is a simple version of one of Queensryche's best songs. It's surprisingly easy to play, and the basic progression can be transposed up and down depending on the key you're comfortable with. The earlier tab was pretty inaccurate. Apologies for that :-( The correct version is in the key of G# minor and can be played with a single guitar, either acoustic or electric. If you find all the barre chords difficult, a simple step is to tune a half step up and play Am, G, etc. . . Someone Else? Lyrics: Geoff Tate Music: Chris DeGarmo From the album "Promised Land" (1994) Intro: G#m / F# Verse 1:
G#mWhen I fell from F#grace... (etc.)
G#m / F# (repeatedly) Pre-chorus:
C#m7They used to say I was nG#mowhere, man. . . C#m7And heading down was my G#mdestiny, C#m7But yesterday, I Eswear, That was F#someone else, not me!
You can alternate between F# and F#sus4 leading into the chorus.
E Here I staC#m7nd, at the crG#mossroads' edge, E Afraid to C#m7reach out forG#m eternity.. E One step, C#m7when I look do-o-F#wn, I see soD#mmeone else, not G#mme
The second chorus ends a little differently:
...G#mlooking back F# ...G#mlooking back and F#mI see... sG#momeone elF#se?
Solo chords are G#m / F# After the second chorus, go straight to the bridge and play the final chorus. When playing the last few lines, use the same chord progression as at the end of the second chorus. End on a silence ("someone else?" with F#, no chord for "me...?") G.
